Segment address * 16 offset, why want to use the number 16?

Segment address * 16 + offset, later see, 16 is a decimal, actually should write 10 h better understanding, because the address offset multi-purpose hexadecimal representation, suddenly write a decimal 16 will mislead the newcomer, Can say, segment address * 10 h Can say, segment address right plus a 0 Can say: the binary number segment address right plus 4 0, so the original 16 would become 20, so addressing capability has increased 15 times,
Why the book like 16, what is the significance?

People are familiar with decimal, before they know, hexadecimal, and 16 are the two characters, 10 h is three characters ~
